Traditionally, we learn the ultimate art of “street style” on the streets of Paris and Milan Fashion Week, but in recent years, we’ve come to rely on more virtual sources of inspiration. Thankfully, the world of street style on Instagram is limitless, connecting us with the most stylish accounts from around the world. From powerhouses like Alexa Chung to newcomers like Annie Brooks, there’s plenty of fashion to soak up from the asphalt. These street style stars are the Rick Girls. They’re a staple of Paris Fashion Week, bringing the runway to the streets and corners we frequent.
These masters of the “grassroots” approach to styling blend the world of high fashion with cultural phenomenon. They create their own fashion blueprint that’s enviably effortless and unapologetically cool. Their Instagram grids are just as eye-catching as their wardrobes. We consider it our go-to opportunity to embody these masters, whenever and wherever we can.
Below, we’ll share the street style Instagram accounts we return to time and time again for unparalleled inspiration.
1. @Monique
For those who prefer relaxed, classic silhouettes and colour palettes, look no further than London’s Monique. With a collection of dreamy dresses and impeccably tailored coats and blazers, her no-nonsense approach to street style dressing makes the perfect foundation for any wardrobe.
2. @double3xposure
Reese and her sister Molly have been social media fashion staples for years, and have some of the coolest street cred in the industry. Not afraid to mix masculine and feminine pieces or wear looks straight from the runway to brunch, they’re the ultimate high fashion influencers.
3. @alexachung
What kind of street style roundup would this be without featuring the king of street style and indie sleaze queen, Alexa Chung. Chung’s IG presence is like a mood board, mixing her own wardrobe with the clothes of fashionable friends and icons who inspire her style, from Jane Birkin to Patti Smith.
4. @lucywilliams02
Lucy Williams is a master of the perfect mix of British comfort and European summer flair. She’s a fashion assistant whose taste also extends to interiors, having recently completed an enviable home renovation.
5. @matildadjerf
Matilda Gelf is a new face on the street style radar, but since discovering her style, we haven’t looked back. Based in Paris, her approach to fashion is definitely more playful — think ruffled sleeves, touches of hot pink, and the most eye-catching accessories. In fact, her street style is so appealing that she founded her own fashion label, Gelf Avenue, and now we can all dress like her.
6. @lefevrediary
It’s no secret that models are nailing the 2021 street style. Amy Juliette Lefebvre is particularly skilled in this field, with her moody yet sophisticated approach suited to both the street and the office. Tailored shorts, Prada loafers. Heaven.
Camille Charrière really has it all. Not only does she really nail glamour, she also nails street style. She’s the kind of girl who can hit the town in her pajamas and still look chic. Her wardrobe has all the hallmarks of street style, including timeless cashmere sweaters, a huge denim selection, and countless button-downs. No matter what she’s wearing, she always manages to exude a flirty vibe with every outfit, and we love it.
8. @StephanieBrook
There are very few people who can inspire us to wear denim bustiers, but Stephanie Brook is one of them. Though her style is mostly sophisticated and demure, the way she incorporates bold pieces to achieve a street style aesthetic inspires us to be more adventurous with our fashion choices.
9. @greceghanem
With her timeless style and unbeatable collection of covetable Bottega Veneta pieces, it’s impossible not to fall in love with Grece Ghanem. Just slip her into this trench coat.
10. @Aminam Adi
Being one of the most coveted shoe designers and being a street style guru go hand in hand, especially for Amina Muaddi. With a slightly different approach to the minimalist styling of our favorite Scandinavian trendsetter, Muaddi’s street style is for those who want to live their life as a runway. Almost always wearing high heels (her own creations, of course), Muaddi is a blueprint for adventurous street style.
11. @Naras._
Scrolling through artist and stylist Cheri’s Instagram feed is a constant reminder that we need to get more experimental with our street style ensembles. Uniquely tailored pieces, vibrant color combinations, and matching icy blonde pixie cuts—she has the street style formula down to earth.
12. @mvb
Carolyn Bassett-Kennedy meets Princess Diana aesthetic in the form of Marie von Behrens: expert layering, covetable knitwear, and jaw-dropping LBDs sprinkled throughout.
13. @Amalie Moosegaard
Copenhagen-based Amelie Mosgaard’s IG account is a Scandinavian moodboard of all things fashion and design. Her street style is fairly minimal, yet very approachable and practical, which is probably one of the reasons her account is so successful. She also runs the jewelry label LIÉ Studio.
14. @venswifestyle
Newcastle resident Renia Jazz, the force behind @venswifestyle, exudes undeniable confidence. Always on top of the latest fashion trends and wearing them her own way, she reminds us that the key to successful street style dressing starts with playing to your strengths.
15. @parisiansinparis
While Parisians in Paris doesn’t focus on any particular street style guru, what could be more rewarding than following an account that shares the best style spots of the world’s most fashionable city? No matter what, we always go back to the French for street style lessons, so following this account is a must if you want to upgrade your everyday wardrobe.
16. @Sausage Road
Annie Brooks, aka Sausage Lord, aka self-proclaimed Euro-trash star. All of these titles are well-deserved for Brooks, who posts some of the most heart-stopping outfits in Paris.
17. @Anaasabaa
Anaa Saber is a New York City-based independent creative consultant, brand strategist, stylist, and influencer. If you need outfit ideas that are on-trend but a little quirky, turn to her.
18. @ChristyEtiller
For classic, understated and flawless style, look no further than Christy Tyler, formerly known as NYCBambi, who has built an entire creative career around her love of simple silhouettes and neutral hues.
19. @MelissaBon
Swiss-French singer-songwriter and model Melissa Bonn exudes effortless cool. Originally from Geneva, she now lives in Paris, and expertly combines street style sensibilities with luxe silhouettes.
20. @Jesswill
Jessica Willis is a stylist and fashion director at The Cut, and if you’re looking for impeccably put together street style images of her strutting the fashion week circuit, look no further.
21. @by.reginaa
Digital creator Jessi Regina seamlessly blends effortless casualwear and everyday wear with urban cool style.
22. Fenfang
Fenfang is famous for her impeccable styling, but not much else is known about her, and while not much is known about what she does for a living, we do know that she is always dressed in the finest clothing.
